So here is the issue I am having, and it only happens with braid for me when casting on a baitcaster. I am chucking a frog and I get a knot in my reel, not a backlash as there is no loosened line, just a knot. It happens normally midcast. Most of the time it pulls out without a problem. I am not sure if this is just me chucking too hard or what? I was doing something similar with a crankbait on mono yesterday and it never happened.
This is happening on 40lb Power Pro V2 Slick. The line has been used about half this season and have even applied KVD line conditioner a couple of times.
Am I using too light of braid for chucking like this? Or do I just need to baby it a little more?
The weird thing is, it isn't an unfamiliarity with bait casting gear or anything, like I said it never happens to me even with casting like 10 or 12lb mono.
Is this common with braid?
